- Right on! Clinton is definitely a mixed bag -- but at least it IS
- mixed. Reagan's first presidential innauguration was on my 15th
- birthday. This is the first chance I've had to have a federal
- government that does some things I like and some things I don't, as
- opposed to one that only ever does things I consider unrelievedly awful.
